In 1966 Francis Crick declared that: “The ultimate aim of the modern movement in biology is to explain all biology in terms of physics and chemistry.” This motivated us to contemplate approaches that unify biology at a fundamental level.

Biology and Function of miR159 in Plants [PDF]
MicroR159 (miR159) is ancient, being present in the majority of land plants where it targets a class of regulatory genes called GAMYB or GAMYB-like via highly conserved miR159-binding sites. These GAMYB genes encode R2R3 MYB domain transcription factors that transduce the gibberellin (GA) signal in the seed aleurone and the anther tapetum.

Metacognition: computation, biology and function [PDF]
Many complex systems maintain a self-referential check and balance. In animals, such reflective monitoring and control processes have been grouped under the rubric of metacognition. In this introductory article to a Theme Issue on metacognition, we review recent and rapidly progressing developments from neuroscience, cognitive psychology, computer ...

Adipocyte HIF2α functions as a thermostat via PKA Cα regulation in beige adipocytes
Thermogenic adipocytes maintain body temperature in response to cold, but how this is tuned during cold and re-warming is unclear. Here, the authors show HIF2α inhibits beige adipocyte retention, regulating PKA catalysis to control dynamic adipocyte ...

Standard aberration: cancer biology and the modeling account of normal function
Cancer biology features the ascription of normal functions to parts of cancers. At least some ascriptions of function in cancer biology track local normality of parts within the global abnormality of the aberration to which those parts belong.
